I truly believe that technology plays a huge positive andnegative role in parenting and life. For one if someone is looking for some qualitative data, technology is awesome...I mean we are all here right?! We are here for stories, experiences, advice and connections and most of us would not be talking if not for our laptops and wifis (or whatever!). However I have a real fear of technology related to obtaining pure hard facts, such as medical issues etc. Now I have searched things online about my lil one, however, I see on a daily basis people in the hospital screaming at doctors and nurses about something they read on wikipedia about their moms illness and our ignorance. In the wrong hands and skill sets these sites can be very dangerous! Some sites provide home remedies and advice that can be dangerous and people really need to take care where and what information is coming from!!!! I recently had a critical patient with infection throughout his body because he read on line about maggot treatment for wounds....so he let food go bad and sit out....waited for maggots to arrive and place them on his heel wounds to eat away necrosis....not a good idea!!
